The time has now come for you to take that important step and apply for your child’s secondary school place for September 2021. To make the process as easy as possible, West Sussex County Council encourages you to apply using the online application system at www.westsussex.gov.uk/admissions. All the information you need to help you through the process of applying for a secondary school place is in this booklet. Before completing your application, please take the time to read this important information. The frequently asked questions pages and the admission arrangements for schools may help you decide on the best secondary schools for your child. We recognise that this year has been an unusual year with schools taking additional precautions to ensure safety for both staff and pupils during the current pandemic. However, many schools are making arrangements for prospective parents to better understand the school and to determine whether the school is the right fit for your child. Arrangements for visiting schools or for finding more out about the school may be organised differently to the way schools have managed this previously.
